If anyone can explain differences to a comic nerds like that they probably shouldn't need to be explaining their differences

Detective Comics Comics?
aurthurallan
TIL what DC stands for. I knew it used to be Detective Comics, but it never registered that is where the DC came from.
No, DC Comics. Their name is no longer Detective Comics, it's "DC Comics".
Detective comics brand comics. Comics made by Detective Comics
ThadiousJayble
Correct me if I'm wrong but I'm pretty sure the company was never named Detective Comics, that is just one of their series.
No, it was. It was called Detective Comics Inc.
My bad. Either way, the company is still called DC Comics and these people complaining apparently know less than I do. lol
When did they change their name? I'm trying to find it but I can't.
Me either, but I remember it being pretty recently. People thought it was dumb.

Actually being one franchise or the other is different than being a fan of both. I'm guessing that's why the argument works.

I interned at a place and my boss was a Star Wars fan. When he found out I was for Star Trek, he made all my log ins Star Wars characters.
The main one being Greedo.

makescreamogreatagain
It's fine to like both, but the dynamics of them are completely different. Star Wars had that whole space opera Western samurai feel to.....
it, whereas Star Trek was "hey, skin color doesn't matter in the future. Here's Kirk fighting." Marvel has always had their roots in.....
scifi and supernatural, while DC has always been more, well... I honestly don't know that one.
cashtha
You. I like you.
Macewindow54
DC explored the human person, Marvel explores human possibilities.
AgamemnonsMemes
DC is more 'aliens' and Marvel is more 'mutants and supernatural' It seems strange to say but DC always seemed more "comicy" than marvel 1/2
Marvel always seemed a little more rooted in the every-day struggles and 'real world' problems. DC was more wild and out there.
Mistruths
They were both Sci-Fi, but DC was more often "aliens" whereas Marvel was more often "mutants"
IAlwaysUpvoteFirefly
Then what the fuck is Thor? And what the fuck were the things they fought in The Avengers?.... What are the Guardians of the Galaxy?
Marvel is more about personalities and modern events. DC is more about archetypes and themes. Marvel = Civil War, DC = Kingdom Come.
DC's problem is having heroes that represent a lot, but have poorly defined personalities (like Superman or Wonder Woman).
Marvel's problem is when their stories and characters are too topical, and rely too much on current pop culture / politics.
